"Excuse me. Again, I'm the head of this building."

"... Nice to meet you, inner length. Thank you for letting me in."

"Nice to meet you. Well, unfortunately, I can't live here. But I'll take care of you for a little while."

"Hehe, I'm kidding. He looked so beautiful, he wanted to keep it with him."

The chief inside exchanges greetings with Lue and Reis, who came slightly late.

About sixteen years old, that look of elegantly laughing with a poor voice that rang the bell is going to uncomfortably believe me when I'm introduced to being some sort of courtier.

But they stared at her somewhere alert.

Haven't you noticed that kind of gaze, or haven't you noticed yet, she twirls a piece and turns back her heel.

And look at this one to take this one's gaze that was asking how the three of them were doing.

"Flowers in both hands. If Amami was with me, I would have had to be able to hold her."

"Hate, that's not what Amami is for."

"Heh heh, you sure don't smell like a woman from you. With medium mental strength."

"... I'm afraid"

Even if you look at your ears, you can't see the silhouette like the elf-specific satin leaves, let alone the ears of the beast.

Race unknown. But the narrative is like knowing all the men's and women's friendships, something that contains leeway and luster.

... If all the humans in here have some kind of circumstance, isn't she as old as she looks again?

"Well. Amami, you should go show your face to everyone inside. I'll talk to you in person later."

"Oh, yeah. Well, thank you for the three of us, Chief."

"Yes, sir. Let me treat you well."

The inner length staring at this one cuts his gaze and calls out to Amami.

She looks like she can't wait somewhere to get a happy look at Director Ri's words, and she runs away.

Sounds like you haven't been home in a really long time. And perhaps talking about Amami is about a witnessed grey-haired elf.

Most importantly, it has already been found that the identity is Lue.

And that should probably be seen as being passed on to this inner length, too.

I'll show you to my mansion.

The chief of the reed takes me, and I move on into hiding.

This is what happens if you wake 'Long idle countryside' to a painting, captured in the landscape just saying, by the illusion that this slightly unusual color sky is responsible or that you really got lost in the painting.

A flowing stream, a water wheel that slowly turns to receive it.

The inhabitants water the fields somewhere pleasant and call out to the occasional inner length who goes before them.

The breeze rocks the grass and the nostalgic green scent tickles my nostrils.

Reminds me of the town of Agidal where I previously stayed, at a time when the passage of time is slow, the emotions I've been straining since I came to this continent, and the expression loosens only slightly.

"... did you like it, inside of us?"

"Huh! Yeah, yeah. Do you even have eyes on your back?

"Hehe, you can tell by the signs. And the two of you behind me are strangely wary of me."

Turning to that word, the two people with the look of being poked at the void look even more alert.

Why are you so vigilant, you two?

"... I'm sorry, I don't know where you are, and I can't help but see that you don't know."

"... I'm sorry. I was a little timid, too."

"What's the matter, both of you? Sure... although he's a little different."

"Oh, that's out-of-heart. I'm a clear, inclusive, caring lady."

"If you say so yourself, some of those four things will be missing."

"Alama. I'll be careful."

... why don't you ask me here now why you two should be on guard?

But if that's all there is to it, I should just raise my guard against this little lady, too, I guess.

Eventually, behind the inside, when the huge, uninterrupted, large trunk of tree that was visible from afar approached.

At the root of the tree, there was a museum with the appearance of a Gothic and antique match that she deserved to go forward.

MISSED MATCH...... but for some reason its standing with leaky days falling seemed to deserve this strange place.

Then Rayce, who had shown vigilance until earlier, came next door and spoke to the chief inside.

"Nice hall, Chief."

"Hehe, will you understand? From what I've seen, my taste in clothing seems similar to mine."

"Sure. Besides, my building had a similar architectural style."

"I guess I should be a little simpler. Something that grows up in the country."

"Hehe, I'm sorry. Perhaps a little restless."

If you ask me, it's a little like Reyce's Hall, Promise Maiden. Is this what you call Gothic?

Just my head reminds me of the antique hall in Tadanchobu and the Inhumans in Kobe, doesn't it?

Passing the Iron Castle Gate, a gentle staircase led up to the main entrance of the building.

The figure of the inner captain who progresses there loosely still only looks like some sort of warrant for this place too.

Eventually it slowly opens its large door and is invited inside.

And the moment I stepped in...

"... to Iron Maiden for guillotine... a faulty axe... not a bad hobby"

"It's all my hobby. I thought it would match this hall, but it's not a good idea."

"... Exactly, I'm a little bit of this too..."

"This blood is real. But not human."

"Oh, did you notice? I use it when I take livestock."

Which torture hall is it here?

Oh, there's also a triangle Trojan horse. Has this been used, too, Mr. Rei?

"Go ahead, take a seat of your choice"

The reception that was put through was still a luxurious room with a uniform Gothic furniture.

It kind of reminds me of the first time I had a drink with Reyce at Promise Maiden, and I look at her.

Then apparently she thought the same thing, pointing some kind of merciful smile at this one.

"Well. You haven't heard your name yet, have you? Can I ask you something?

"Ah. I'm sorry, I totally forgot. I'm Caivon."

"Speaking of which, you haven't. I'm Lue."

"It's Reis. Sorry I'm late."

"Correct the original and I'll be the cause. A little bit of a joke passed earlier. I'm sorry."

Calm down, and head down inside length.

The trick, the attitude, seems like what she deserves for her title.

Just a little bit, I suspected she was a shadow warrior or something, a person to try this one out, but it should be noted that what she did in this hall is what can be described as a grand lord here.

Then it's time to stop imitating what I suspect.

Especially since the two neighbors are still a little skeptical.

"Bye, Mr. Rue. Amami told me that you wanted to visit about the history of gray hair on this continent, but that's for sure, right?

"Right. And if you can, about this place."

"Due to the nature of the inside, I can't speak very deeply, but still, if I may,"

And she wanted to know, and I wanted to know myself, about the gray hair on this continent.

"First of all, Mr. Rue. From what I've heard, I hear you're a high-ranking magician, but could you tell me if there seems to be any predictions, speculations, of you at this stage? It would be easier to talk about."

"So is that."

He looks used to it and talks to Lue. And Rhue also agrees with the suggestion that someone wanted to hear his thoughts once.

And her speculation, perhaps after adding to the structure inside this, tells the story of the inhabitants who have seen it from a distance since entering this house.

"Right......" Congenital Magic Diffusion Disease ". Look at the residents in here. That's the word I just thought."

The first word I spoke. It was a disturbing feeling of air.

It's like a disease, that word like something you were born to carry.

And when he heard it, the inner chief moved his neck gently so as not to deny it or affirm it, but just to prompt it to continue quietly.

"This inside, it doesn't face out. The sky is a crop, and all the water flowing is artificially adjusted. All the inhabitants just now had magic flowing out of their bodies. We're reducing it to air and water."

"… is that all you know, what is a magician?"

After listening to Lue's commentary, the inner chief nonetheless tells him pale without breaking his expression.

"It's me, I know. This air, this technique, this technique... I miss it so much."

"... I miss you, do you"

"Well, I've told you what I need to tell you. Lieutenant, tell me. Tell me about this place and what gray hair is like."

It looked like he poked at the core, but Rhue hasn't got to the answer yet.

I just let him talk about the symptoms of the inhabitants and speculation about how this inside works. However, it seemed that too much information was available to arrive at the answer ahead.

"A gray hair is a side effect of some kind of constraint hung before it was born...... that's my, no, predecessor's arrived at answer. I'll tell you because you seem to be aware, but this inside is a kind of subspace, adjusted to prevent spills of magic and magic and allow residents to take it inside again. From the very roots of the great trees where the magic of this continent gathers, it is maintained with a little bit of magic."

"Sounds like it. I thought it was a big tree for a long time..."

"So... there's nothing more I can say about grey elves... if you have any other questions, please do."

The two of us who had finished talking were just staring at each other quietly.

As Lue suspects this inner chief is hiding something.

Director Ri, as he seemed to observe an abruptly emerged seeker of truth.

And I look at Rayce sitting next to me, who is holding this hand quietly from earlier.

"... Reis?

"Wouldn't it be okay if we just looked inside a little bit? Lue is too grumpy."

Then she suggests that she turn to the two of them who were staring at each other silently.

Two people cutting each other's gaze and breaking their expressions.

At that moment, the breathlessness fades as if fresh air had crept into the reception that was filled with strained air somewhere.

Apparently that was the same for Lue, who exhaled heavily.

"Well, maybe after a little closer look inside, Chief."

"Yes. If you notice anything strange in your eyes, please ask. I want that, too. You said you miss this place. I welcome you to feel that way."

Open the door of the hall and go outside.

Breathe heavily as you are unnaturally welcomed into the blue sky.

This place, Rue said, was an artificial place, and the inner director admitted it.

However, this fresh air that we are now savoring and the landscape that feels nostalgic do exist here.

Whatever the origins and so-called places this place was, I had the feeling that it was a nice place.

And I'm sure that's what the residents here feel.

I'm sure this place is a cozy place to live for the residents. I don't just want to imitate that by trampling it with earthfoot.

"At dusk, it seems. I'd like to do some handicrafts."

"Okay, I'll let you take a look inside until then."

"Um, if you don't mind coming back early to help..."

"Hehe, can I accept that it's inviting me? Mr. Reyes."

"... no"

"Please don't give a hand to Mr. Rei or my sister."

"It's a joke. I don't want to die yet. I'll just take your feelings. Dinner, expect it. Actually, the other day, I crushed a cow."

"... no way is that execution tool's blood"

Walk out through the Iron Castle Gate with such an exchange in front of the hall.

You were a strange person, I try to share my thoughts with you two.

But you two are almost at the same time...

"That's not a person, that's not a creature."

Yes, I said with all my mouth together.
